Anti Money Laundering (AML)

Understand how CreditorWatch’s AML Screening helps your business meet KYC and AML/CTF compliance obligations by checking individuals against PEP, sanctions, and adverse media lists.

Updated this week

Anti-Money Laundering (AML) screening helps businesses comply with Know Your Customer (KYC), Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing (CTF) legislation by identifying potential risks such as politically exposed persons (PEPs), sanctions, and adverse media associations.


Overview

AML compliance is a key component of KYC obligations. These laws are designed to prevent financial crimes such as corruption, tax evasion, and theft.


CreditorWatch makes it easy to generate AML Screening reports directly within our platform to support your compliance processes.


How CreditorWatch Helps with AML and CTF Compliance

CreditorWatch AML screening complies with both KYC and AML/CTF requirements. Reports can be run on any given name and surname to identify individuals who may appear on relevant risk lists.

We offer the following report types:

  • AML Screening Report — Checks an individual against PEPs, sanctions, and adverse media databases.

  • UBO Report + AML Screening — Combines an Ultimate Beneficial Owner (UBO) report with AML screening for all individual owners identified in the UBO search.
